Arco Gallerywalk, new idea from Arco Art Fair to boost visits to art galleries in Madrid

MADRID.- ARCOmadrid is collaborating again this year with the DecorAcción festival, this time with ARCO GALLERYWalk. With this new initiative ARCOmadrid offers a series of free guided visits to galleries in the Barrio de las Letras district of Madrid. So, from 29 September to 1 October, anyone interested can take part in these walks which will introduce them to the spaces, programmes and the exhibitions with which the galleries get the new season off to a start. The visits will be led by Sara García Fernández and Lola Iglesias Lago, two young art experts appointed by ARCOmadrid, who will take groups of a maximum of ten people on an hour long walk of the different spaces. These walks will be a perfect occasion to meet and socialise while visiting galleries, seeing interesting exhibitions and chatting with gallerists. Drinks will be provided during ARCO GalleryWalk by Bombay, an ARCOmadrid collaborating
